NAME

App::Pinto::Admin::Subcommand::stack::merge - merge one stack into another

VERSION

version 0.040_001

SYNOPSIS

  pinto-admin --root=/some/dir stack merge [OPTIONS] SOURCE_STACK TARGET_STACK

DESCRIPTION

!! THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. DO NOT USE ON A LIVE REPOSITORY !!

This command merges the packages from one stack (the SOURCE) into another (the TARGET). Merge rules are as follows:

  • If a package in the SOURCE is newer than the corresponding package in the TARGET, then the package in the TARGET is upgraded to the same version as the package in the SOURCE.

  • If the package in the TARGET is pinned and the corresponding package in the SOURCE is newer, then a conflict occurrs.

  • If the package in the SOURCE is pinned and the corresponding package in the TARGET is newer, then a conflict occurrs.

Whenever there is a conflict, the merge is aborted. All the pins from the SOURCE are also placed on the TARGET. Both SOURCE and TARGET stacks must already exist before merging. Please see the copy or create subcommands to create stacks.

SUBCOMMAND ARGUMENTS

Required arguments are the name of the SOURCE stack and the name of the TARGET stack.

SUBCOMMAND OPTIONS

--dryrun

Conflicts will be reported, but the stacks will not be merged and the repository will not be changed. Note: This option is currently not functional.
